DALLAS -- Vice President Mike Pence landed in Dallas on Wednesday at the Southern Baptist Convention.

During his speech to a crowd of about 10,000, he took the time to speak about President Trump's recent meeting with North Korean leader, Kim Jong Un.

"The President went to this meeting as in his words, 'on a mission of peace,' but with eyes wide open," Pence said. "And I can report the meeting that took place was direct and honest provocative and productive."

He went on to point out that the president credits the meeting with North Korea to Otto Warmbier, the American college student who was imprisoned in North Korea back in 2016 and later died in 2017 after slipping into a coma.
